| I have 2 butterfly Koi that I purchased last year. They are yellow in colour and now are begining to have orange spots on them. Is this normal or are they infected by something? |

| Slook, How big are the koi? When the koi are young their colors can change. Carolyn |

Slook, It is not at all uncommon for yellow fish to develop orange spots on them. As long as the spots are orange and not red I don't think there is a problem. But keep an eye on them and if the spots start to look red than take a closer look.

| It is VERY common for a Yamabuki to develop orage spots...black spots can also pop up as well. |
